Her husband Offset bought her a $1.5 million investment property in the Dominican Republic as a birthday present earlier in October.

And now Cardi B and Offset are expanding their real estate holdings by purchasing a new house in New York City.

The 29-year-old rap sensation shared a photo of herself taking in the view by her new grand staircase on Tuesday as she celebrated finally having a house of her own in her ‘home city.’

Movin' on up: Cardi B, 29, revealed Tuesday on Instagram she and her husband Offset had purchased a home in her hometown of New York City.


Movin’ on up: Cardi B, 29, revealed Tuesday on Instagram she and her husband Offset had purchased a home in her hometown of New York City.

Cardi had toned down her often-color looks with black slacks and knee-high black boots, though she added an eye-catching leopard-print hooded coat and a matching beret to her look.

She stood with her back to the camera but turned her head to face it as she raised her hands toward the elegant staircase surrounding her.

The WAP rapper appeared to be standing in the home’s front entrance, which featured pale hardwood floors and had two curving staircases on either side of her leading up to a balcony overlooking the entrance.

The space featured brilliant white walls, but it was clearly ready for a makeover, as buckets of paint were stacked against a wall in the background.

Close to home: Cardi wrote that it was her dream to have a home in expensive New York City so that she could 'get together' with her family regularly

Cardi wrote in her caption that it was a dream come true to have a place to herself in her hometown, though her busy touring schedule made it hard to classify any city as her home base.

‘These days I don’t just live one place, I’m everywhere due to my work,’ she explained. ‘One thing for sure I needed a home in my home city of NY!

‘I’m soo proud of myself,’ she gushed. ‘I work so hard for my children to be comfortable everywhere they are regardless of work. Me and my husband have always dreamed of having a crib in NY, and we have decided to add to our portfolio of homes, along with Atlanta and LA.’

Part of the appeal of a New York home was being so much closer to family.

‘Now having a home in NY, I can have get togethers with my family all the time!!’ she wrote. ‘I have accomplished so many things yet I still feel far from all the goals I want to accomplish. This is one dream I can cross off…..’

Cardi joked at the end that her fans should ‘Let me know if ya’ll want a mini tour!’

Later on Tuesday in a since-deleted tweet, she shared an exterior photo of the property’s guest house and revealed she had been negotiating on the property since May.

She was quoting an earlier tweet noting that some social media users had complained about Cardi’s home purchase and the news that she would host the American Music Awards.
